Simple Operation
Superb Visibility with an exclusive 360 degree operating environment that enables the operator to face the direction of travel for better job site awareness. The rotating seat also slides from side to side for optimal wheel edge visibility.Simple Operation
An LCD provides a visual references of machine controls to keep the operator informed when making adjustments. The display can be customized to support multiple language options. The push-button controls make operation easy and enable operators to modify engine speed, travel speed, and water spray functions.Compaction Width
Seven rubber tires provide an overall compaction width of 2090 mm (82") with 84 mm (3") overlap.Pickup Prevention
Several features help prevent material from adhering to the tires. The water spray system includes a pump, triple filtration, and dedicated spray nozzles for each tire. Spring-applied, self-adusting scrapers help remove debris and prevent accumulation.Oscillating Wheels
Oscillating wheels optimize compaction beneath each wheel and eliminates bridging over softer areas.Engine
A C4.4 engine provides 75 kW (100.5 hp) of power and meets emissions equivalent to U.S. EPA Tier 3, EU Stage IIIA, and China Stage III.Automatic Speed Control
Automatic speed control enables operators to maintain consistent speeds for optimal performance.Eco-Mode
Eco-mode modifies the engine speed to 1900 rpm for peak performance and lower fuel consumption. The reduced rpm also lowers sound levels for enhanced operator comfort.Best Lifetime Value
Best Lifetime Value with efficient engine and durable rubber tires minimize life-time operating costs and maximize profit.Lower Maintenance
The standard 500 hour oil service interval, extended life coolant, eco-mode, and bio-degradeable oil, lead to longer intervals between scheduled service requirements.Product Specifications for CW12
